MBL 121 Compact

MBL's revolutionary "Radialstrahler" system allows their new mbl 121 monitor to conjure up a three-dimensional sound field in your listening space, just like that found in a music venue. The "Radialstrahler" concept is, in theory, simple, yet ingenious: musical instruments and voices emit sound waves in all directions – so they created a loudspeaker that radiates in all directions, not just to the front or rear, like more common designs.

The critical tweeter and midrange drivers of the mbl 121 share technology with our legendary mbl 101 and mbl 111 loudspeakers, which utilize a patented arrangement of hand-made curved stripes, or "petals," fixed vertically around an axis. A voice coil at the base and a counter bearing on the top keep the petals under tension upward and downward. When a musical impulse is transmitted from the amplifier to the speakers, the petals bend in proportion to the current and emit sound waves (this principle is also called "Bending Pulsar Driver," or B-Pulsar). The result is an outstanding three-dimensional and natural sound field, which in any direction remains undistorted, neutral, and homogenous – just like the live musical event.
